Athos. Monks abstain from food voluntarily, which greatly eases their ascetic labors. If I do something, for example, then I do it of my own free will, and as a result I barely feel the burden of asceticism. But these poor people hunger involuntarily and thus suffer much, much more. God can reward these people with even greater rewards than the ascetics living in solitude.&#8221;<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\" data-block=\"true\" data-editor=\"au855\" data-offset-key=\"6gv67-0-0\">\n<div class=\"_1mf _1mj\" data-offset-key=\"6gv67-0-0\"><span data-offset-key=\"6gv67-0-0\"><span data-text=\"true\">(Elder St. Paisios in \u2018St. Paisios the Hagiorite\u2019)<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"_1mf _1mj\" data-offset-key=\"6gv67-0-0\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"_1mf _1mj\" data-offset-key=\"6gv67-0-0\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-3686\" src=\"http:\/\/orthodoxinsight.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/vcc-201x300.jpg\" alt=\"vcc\" width=\"201\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/orthodoxinsight.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/vcc-201x300.jpg 201w, https:\/\/orthodoxinsight.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/vcc.jpg 236w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 201px) 100vw, 201px\" \/><\/div>\n<div class=\"\" data-block=\"true\" data-editor=\"au855\" data-offset-key=\"fcba2-0-0\">\n<div class=\"_1mf _1mj\" data-offset-key=\"fcba2-0-0\"><span data-offset-key=\"fcba2-0-0\">\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\" data-block=\"true\" data-editor=\"au855\" data-offset-key=\"9262m-0-0\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;If those who are poor, in need and are starving do not grumble or murmur, they will receive the same reward as hermits who struggle in asceticism on the slopes [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3685","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-orthodox-quotes","has_thumb"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/orthodoxinsight.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3685","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/orthodoxinsight.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/orthodoxinsight.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/orthodoxinsight.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/orthodoxinsight.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=3685"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/orthodoxinsight.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3685\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3687,"href":"https:\/\/orthodoxinsight.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3685\/revisions\/3687"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/orthodoxinsight.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=3685"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/orthodoxinsight.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=3685"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/orthodoxinsight.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=3685"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
